You can find them working in offices, supermarkets, factories, forests, the media, construction sites, hospitals, hotels, stadiums, schools, transportation systems, and even the corner coffee shop. We are new. The Fraser Valley Labour Council was chartered in February of 2007 and we already have close to 12,000 members affiliated. We represent union members in the Fraser Valley and Canyon, from Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Hope and Mission to Agassiz, Harrison, Lytton, and Boston Bar areas. What do we do? • Provide labour education • Lobby governments on workers' issues and rights • Work on campaigns to support working families' issues • Help to encourage more union members • Help to build stronger communities Click here to find out how we work. We're part of the Union Advantage For more than a half century, the Canadian Labour Congress and its affiliated unions have been the unified voice for working families. The Fraser Valley Labour Council is now part of that. Unionized workers have better job security, which results in more security for their families. Unions bargain for better wages and working conditions, better pensions and benefits, safer workplaces and protection from unfairness in the workplace. When working people do well, their workplaces thrive, our communities are stronger and we have a better country. It means having someone in your corner, bringing fairness and balance into the workplace. | |||||||||||||||||||
